‘Mad Max: Fury Road : Before And After VFX Shots From The Film Blow Your Mind

independent

Mad Max: Fury Road is a crazy movie, and by crazy, I mean brilliant. This author isn't into labels and genres but if you pointed a gun to my head and asked me to place the film in a bracket, there's a good chance I'd scream out 'dystopian chase opera' without thinking twice.

From its crazy stunts to Junkie XL's adrenaline pumping OST, from the feminist message within the plot to the parallels between the fictional warboys and the real ISIS, a lot has been written about George Miller's modern classic. Adding on to that, I'd also like to mention visual effects producers Alex Biknell and Fiona Crawford, visual effects supervisor Tom Wood and everyone in studios Kennedy Miller Mitchell, Iloura, Method Studios, Blackginger and The Third Floor. They took the raw footage shot in Namibia and Australia and added their magical touch to it. Dystopia never looked so beautiful.

Mad Max: Fury Road review: You should not miss 2015 best film starring Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron

There are two sorts of people who are eager to watch Mad Max: Fury Road — those who harbour a lust-fuelled interest in Tom Hardy, and geeks who have been waiting 30 years for the follow-up to Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. The rest might wonder what's the big deal about a reboot that has hellish jalopies and Charlize Theron at her most unglamorous.

Here's the answer: Mad Max: Fury Road could well be the best film that will come out of Hollywood in 2015. Skip it because you don't care for dust, grubby men, almost-bald women and/ or action movies, and you'll have missed greatness.
